Expression of Interest system notices
- All persons who are interested in applying to the Skilled Worker Stream must create an Expression of Interest (EOI) profile.
- The Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (MPNP) receives an allocation of nominations each year from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). The MPNP invites a corresponding number of applications to be submitted to utilize the entire nomination allocation through the EOI draws. The MPNP can only approve as many applications as the nomination allocation in a given year.
- For 2022, the MPNP can approve 6,367 applications.
- The nomination allocation for 2023 has not yet been announced.
- The MPNP issues Letters of Advice to Apply (LAAs) based on priority by stream and the highest ranking points at the time of a given EOI draw.
- The number of profiles in Manitoba’s EOI pool exceeds the annual nomination allocation. As a result, not everyone who creates an EOI profile will be selected to receive a LAA to the MPNP.
- Individuals can improve their score by completing or updating their language test results, completing additional work experience, or through completion of additional education.
- Individuals interested in immigrating to Manitoba may also be eligible to apply through a federal immigration program. More information on federal immigration programs can be found on the IRCC website.
